Now on demonstration – five star award winning ARCAM rPhono and rPlay

ARCAM have hit a rich vein of form with their two award winning products, the ARCAM rPhono and rPlay systems.

This phono stage and streamer have been given rave reviews from What Hi-Fi? recently.

The rPhono is designed specifically to replace an in-built phono amplifier or to add a turntable connection to your existing amplifier. It benefits from ARCAM’s analogue audio expertise and uses the finest quality parts in a layout that is optimised for low noise and minimum distortion. Featuring a wealth of features specifically designed for optimal matching of your turntable’s cartridge, the rPhono is the perfect solution for the vinyl lover. Moving coil users benefit from precision impedance matching using high-quality trimmers instead of discrete steps, while moving magnet users have a wide variety of capacitance options. An optional low frequency “rumble” filter eliminates the effects of warping or pressing irregularities, which can be present on some vinyl.

What Hi-Fi? described it as “refined, informative and entertaining,” awarding it five stars and adding “Arcam’s rPhono is a well-specified and fine sounding phono stage. Highly recommended!”

The ARCAM rPlay was similarly praised as being “an affordable, easy-to-use way to introduce myriad streaming solutions to your hi-fi system” and it is hard to disagree.

It allows you to add network audio streaming services and internet radio to any system using DTS PlayFi, Apple Airplay® or UPnP enabled music sources.

The four-layer PCB allows our designers to maximise the quality of the ground plane in order to further reduce interference between components. The use of multiple low noise individually regulated power supplies ensures the rPlay delivers the cleanest signal to the audiophile quality output stage. As well as a fixed line level analogue output, the rPlay also features a variable analogue output.

These small boxes are discreet, slimline and slot nicely into your system. However, the impact they will have on your system is anything but subtle – enabling new features and new sources they are certainly worth adding to your hi-fi set up.
